I was told that the 2016Thai comedy "Like Jazz 4G" (aka "Joking Jazz 4G") was a funny and enjoyable movie, so of course I had to sit down and watch it as I had the chance in 2021.

Sure, I had never even heard about the movie prior to sitting down and watching it. So I didn't really know what to expect from writer and director Poj Arnon.

And let me just say that I was waiting for the funny moments to show up in the movie, and I waited and waited. But it just never showed up. Perhaps my particular preference of what is considered funny in a movie is different from a native Thai person's opinion. At least the things in Poj Arnon's "Joking Jazz 4G" just didn't appeal to me.

I wanted to like the movie, I really did. And I managed to sit through it to the end. But the movie just never really managed to get a hold of me and entertain me. So it was a long and boring time to sit through the movie.

It was the storyline told in "Joking Jazz 4G" that just utterly failed to capture my interest. Though the characters in the movie were interesting enough, but they just didn't stand a chance against such a pointless and mundane storyline.

There are far better and more enjoyable Thai comedies readily available. So "Joking Jazz 4G" felt like a waste of time and effort for me.

I am rating "Joking Jazz 4G" a generous three out of ten stars.
